Definitely dye something blue!

The Superb Owl is this weekend, right? I've already forgotten what teams are playing.

I'm about to start day two of a class taught by this guy: [link]

ETA: Ooh, purple or blue!

I LOVE my purple highlights. Bangs and then a few panels on the sides and back. I refresh the color myself every couple of weeks but my stylist takes care of the bleaching and then initial dying.

They have "bulky item pick-up": [link].

Yeah, but we get one bulk pickup per year, and I don't want to waste on someone else's garbage. I'll try the city and the garbage company...

Purple and blue! I've had blue since August and added purple a couple weeks ago and it's rather nice. Peekaboo, and fades interestingly between appointments.

Returned the sleep study gear, waiting for blood pressure, uh, something. I thought I was seeing my pcp but apparently not.

Is your class about happiness, shrift? I am intrigued.

That seems like it shouldn't be your responsibility, Consuela, but I am often wrong about that.

I have to keep reminding myself not to get worked up about my job, because I have 3.5 days left! But still, some of these people can kiss my fucking ass, seriously.

Meanwhile my boyfriend literally squiggles a line for his signature and has never had an issue, so maybe we just need to sign less well?

That's what I was thinking -- my father's signature was his first initial and then some squiggles -- who's to say what he was writing?

Interestingly, the passport agency does not need documentation of a legal name change if the change involves a standard nickname or a minor change.

That was my experience! But I'm surprised it's still true. As you all may recall, my birth certificate says Jessica. But since I've always used Jesse, I had no problem getting it printed on my SS card or passport. (Clearly if the law was after Jessica, they would probably still be able to find me.)

I've had 5 last names, but my signature has changed little over the years. Rather like initials and squiggles. DH#1 and I had our names changed legally from his birth name to his 'stage' name. It was cheap and easy at the time, but that was in the early 70s.

If my hair would hurry up and get gray I will have fun colors. I have a friend with white hair who has so much fun with it.

My signature is basically initials and squiggles. Have always used the same name, though, except with DIRECTV who insist on calling me by DH's last name. My dad added his middle name legally, and my sister changed hers (not to her husband's name), she didn't mention it being difficult or expensive.

BP is normal today, which is good I guess? IDEKAM

My dad added his middle name legally

My birth certificate doesn't have a middle name, but it is on my SS card and drivers license.

My parents didn't give me one at birth as my maiden name was pretty long to begin with. After I turned 17 I told my mom that I wanted a middle name for my 18th birthday. She could talk to anyone but me about it. On my 18th, she presented me with framed piece of paper that had my first and middle in beautiful calligraphy and "on the occasion of your 18th birthday" under it. And just now I realized it is not hung up in my house, which is unusual. Will need to go find it. Anyway, I'm not sure if she did anything legally to make it official but no one has ever questioned me about it.
